Sardana added: “The commissioning of Amakhala Wind farm, Tata Power’s first wind project outside India, marks the company’s continued progress on its objectives of enhancing non-fossil based generation portfolio up to 30-40% of its total generating capacity and thereby creating value for its stakeholders.

“We would further like to thank the Department of Energy, Republic of South Africa, Eskom, our partners Exxaro Resources, Nordex (our WTG supplier), lenders to the project and all the community stakeholders for their contribution towards successful implementation of this project.”
